Dr. Dan Hwang
Dr. Dan Hwang was born and raised in Ottawa, Ontario. He has a B.Sc Biology from the University of Western Ontario and received his Doctor of Dental Surgery Degree from the University of Toronto. He had a successful clinic in the Kawarthas but his love for Ottawa made him give up his clinic there and return home.
In his spare time, Dr. Hwang combines a love of travelling with volunteer dentistry and has provided dental services throughout Central and South America. In fact, Dr. Hwang met his wife and fellow dentist, Dr. Claudia Courchesne, on a dental humanitarian mission to Peru. They are parents to two children, Sophie and Alex.
Both Dr. Hwang and Dr. Courchesne are committed to the practice of quality dentistry, enhanced patient care, and comprehensive treatment planning. They average over 100 continuing education hours per year and have completed the core curriculum at the Pankey Institute of Advanced Dental Education in Key Biscayne, Florida. They are continuing their learning at Spear Education in Scottsdale, Arizona.

Dr. Cindy Wei
Dr. Cindy Wei grew up in Kanata, and attended the University of Ottawa for Biomedical Studies where she focused her research on Parkinson’s. She then moved on to dental school at University of Toronto.
After graduating, Dr. Wei was recruited to work in Northern Manitoba. She gained a lot of perspective and experience from the unique challenges of serving a rural community, and endeavours to bring that tight-knit sense of community and connection with patients to her work here.
Dr. Wei is thrilled to be back home with her family and friends, and to establish her career in Ottawa at Westboro Station Dental. She combines an attention to detail with an easy-going personality, and a focus on the patient experience.
